BUTETHAMINE, an ester of the para-aminobenzoic acid, is a local anesthetic formerly used in dentistry. It has diminished toxicity and increased the speed of action as compared with procaine.

Apalcillin is a naphthydridine derivative of ampicillin. Apalcillin has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity that is very similar to that of piperacillin, except that apalcillin is significantly more active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp. Against Acinetobacter spp., apalcillin is uniquely active, compared to the other penicillins and comparison drugs. Strains producing high amounts of β-lactamases do become resistant to apalcillin. PAH (p-aminohippurate) clearance was significantly decreased during apalcillin infusion. Apalcillin appeared to compete with PAH for proximal tubular secretion but induced no further renal dysfunction.

Ciramadol is an opioid agonist-antagonist analgesic with low potential for dependency. Ciramadol appears to be an effective analgesic, with tolerable gastrointestinal central nervous system side effects at both the 30-and 90-mg dose levels. Ciramadol is a mixed agonist-antagonist for the μ-opioid receptor. Side effects might include nausea and vomiting.

Amadione is a steroidal progestogenic antiandrogen. Its anti-androgenic properties were confirmed by blockade of androgen-induced increase in seminal acid phosphatase content.

Dibenzepin is a tricyclic antidepressant of the dibenzo-epine group. It is a selective noradrenaline uptake inhibitor, which exhibits in vitro and in vivo imipramine-like effects. It binds strongly to histamine H1 receptors in the brain and, to a lesser extent, to cholinergic receptors. The pharmacological profile of dibenzepin corresponds widely to its biochemical properties: histamine antagonism, tetrabenazine antagonism, potentiation of various noradrenergic effects and anticholinergic effects. Dibenzepin is only available in European countries for the treatment of depression.

Mecysteine is used as a mucolytic in respiratory disorders associated with productive cough. Mecysteine is known as a mucolytic agent, it breaks down mucus. It works by breaking some of the chemical bonds between the molecules in mucus. It is given orally in a usual dose of 200 mg three times daily before meals reduced to 200 mg twice daily after 6 weeks. A rapid clinical effect can be achieved by giving 200 mg four times daily for the first 2 days. Mecysteine has also been given by inhalation.

Boxidine (1-[2-[[4′-(Trifluoromethyl)-4-biphenylyl]oxy]ethyl]pyrrolidine) is an inhibitor of 3β-hydroxysteroid-Δ7-reductase (DHCR7) thereby it affects cholesterol biosynthesis. Boxidine induces the accumulation of desmosterol.

Oxilofrine is a sympathomimetic used to treat hypotensive states, with cardiac stimulatory effects similar to those of ephedrine. It has never been approved for use in the USA as a prescription drug or as a dietary supplement. Oxilofrine has been found (1) to act predominantly as a beta1 agonist increasing the speed and force of heart muscle contraction (inotropic effects), specifically, increasing left ventricular ejection fraction and stroke volume; (2) to increase blood pressure; (3) to have variable effects on heart rate; and (4) to potentially increase oxygen uptake by the lungs.

Methenolone (also known as primobolan) was described in 1960. Squibb Company began producing injectable drug in 1962. Methenolone originally was prescribed in case of muscle loss after operations, infections, long-term illnesses, aggressive therapy with corticoids or malnutrition, and in some cases it was used to treat osteoporosis and breast cancer. Methenolone was commonly used to promote weight gain in infants, weighing less than normal, without any side effects. Methenolone is an anabolic steroid, modification of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) with weak androgenic activity and a moderate anabolic effect. A notable trait of methenolone is that it can firmly bind to androgen receptors, stronger than testosterone. Adult doses for the treatment of aplastic anemia are usually in a range of 1–3 mg/kg per day. Adverse side effects include fluid and electrolyte retention, hypercalcaemia, increased bone growth and skeletal weight. In men, additional side priapism, azoospermia, hirsutism, male pattern baldness, acne andoedema. In women, side effects include virilization, amenorrhoea, menstrual irregularities, suppressed lactation, and increased libido. In children, side effects may include virilization symptoms. Metenolone may enhance effects of antidiabetics, ciclosporin, levothyroxine, warfarin. Resistance to the effects of neuromuscular blockers may occur, and metenolone also has the potential to interfere with glucose tolerance and thyroidfunction tests. Metenolone enanthate (methenolone enanthate) is an ester derivative of methenolone sold commonly under the brand names Primobolan (tablet form) orPrimobolan Depot (injectable). When it interacts with the aromatase enzyme it does not form any estrogens. It is used by people who are very susceptible to estrogenic side effects, having lowerestrogenic properties than nandrolone. This trait makes primobolan to be a good fat burner. Primobolan does not convert into estradiol. As an anabolic steroid, the use of metenolone is banned from use in sports governed by the World Anti-Doping Agency. Belarusian shot putter Nadzeya Ostapchuk was stripped of her gold medal after testing positive for metenolone at the London 2012 Olympic Games. She has been excluded from future IOC events. The NBA and NBPA also banned the use of methenolone under the Anti-Drug Program. In February 2013, Hedo Türkoğlu of the Orlando Magic was suspended for 20 games without pay by the league after testing positive for methenolone. In December 2013, Natalia Volgina was stripped of her 2013 Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon title and received a two-year competition ban, subsequent to a final guilty verdict for using the steroid Metenolone.

Bevantolol (INN) was a drug candidate for angina and hypertension that acted as both a beta blocker and a calcium channel blocker. Animal experiments confirm both agonist and antagonist effects on alpha-receptors, in addition to antagonist activity at beta-1 receptors. By binding and antagonizing beta-1 receptors Bevantolol inhibits the normal normal epinephrine-mediated sympathetic actions such as increased heart rate. This has the effect of decreasing preload and blood pressure. Bevantolol was discovered and developed by Warner-Lambert but in January 1989 the company announced that it had withdrawn the New Drug Application. As of 2016 it wasn't marketed in the US, UK, or Europe.
